Drained residual shear strength is applicable to slopes containing preexisting shear surfaces and preexisting landslides. Laboratory ring shear testing by various researchers suggest the possibility of strength gain along preexisting shear surfaces which had ...

Back-analysis of a landslide is performed to estimate the mobilized shear strength of the problematic layer. Back-analysis can be an effective procedure for estimating the mobilized shear strength because it avoids the problems associated with laboratory and ...

Drained residual shear strength is considered applicable for the analysis of slopes with a preexisting shear surface. Torsional ring and direct shear tests were performed to investigate the gain in strength, if any, along a preexisting shear surface with time. ...

This paper describes input parameters and stability analyses for a municipal solid waste (MSW) landfill experiencing elevated temperatures due to an aluminum waste reaction. The scenarios analyzed to investigate slope stability include elevated temperatures ...

This paper presents the influence of lime, in the range of 0–13%, on the compaction behaviour of soils with wide range of plasticity characteristics (i.e. liquid limit varying from 45% to 460% and plastic limit 26% to 53.7%). The test results indicate that ...
